Holiday Gift Guide - For The Gals

Putting together a gift guide for the ladies has to be one of the easiest to do. The options for us gals are simply endless. Whether you gift big or small there is something for everyone below and most items have a discount code you can use on them. You can find all of my favorite sales & shops here. 

What lady doesn't love a little sparkle under the Christmas tree? This necklace is sure to impress.

Calling all fitness buffs, this personalized yoga mat makes a great gift for those who like to get their work out on. 

I adore gifts that are perfectly paired with one another. How great will this cherry iPhone case look with a new iPhone. 

A pair of velvet slippers that say I love you with every wear.

Another great stocking stuffer is this cute compact that you can monogram in your ladies initials.

Steal The Style

I don't know about you but pretty much everything Olivia Palermo wears is perfection. I constantly find myself grasping inspiration from her fashionable looks past and present. One that stands out is a snap from a few years ago where she was wearing an amazing Striped Tibi jacket and some very cute Mulberry bow pumps. The rest of the outfit was just a simple silk blouse, tote and dark denim - all wardrobe essentials we likely have in our closets. I thought I would create a little round up to grab her look for less. Have a great weekend everyone!

Cash Or Credit - Wardrobe Essentials

Thanks to Santa, as a kid my Christmas morning stocking had a ton of subscriptions to fashion magazines. Till this day I love nothing more then lounging around with a good glossy to relax. I know forget which magazine did it but one of my favorite features was always the splurge versus steal on stylish looks for less money, because the more money I saved, the more clothes I was able to buy! I truly enjoy the challenge of creating my version of this series "cash or credit" as it really makes me hunt for the perfect item for less without sacrificing quality, brands or style. So while in my opinion some items that get a ton of use are totally worth splurging on {handbags & outwear}. Today I thought I would share a few favorite wardrobe essentials that are on heavy rotation in my closet like the classic trench, my favorite arrow necklace {seen here & here} and of course great denim and comfy flats for walking around town!
